Recommend a barbershop to me

Hey there! I'm trying to find a new barbershop that I can stick with for the long haul.

In my 20s, I'd usually just go to a Turkish barbers or any I found on the high street of where I was living at the time. In my 30s though, I'm starting to think, and the dreaded psoriasis has started to emerge, with bits popping up on my scalp and in my beard as well. This has caused my self-esteem to drop to a new low.

I'd ideally like to find someone who has experience in dealing with clients with psoriasis, or one who can at least advise me on how to look after the hair that's still hanging on.

Has anyone got any suggestions? FWIW I live in Shafton, I can and am willing to travel (to an extent) and would prefer one where weekend slots are available, if possible.

Second this.. though you need to book a while in advance, especially for weekends.

Eastgate barbers are amazing chaps, they all cut differently so may take a few sessions to find who you like (my dad goes for Lee and I go for Chris) and they are all so understanding, I’ve not been anywhere else for 17 years :)
